A Triple TRAGEDY,

PI1TsBuRa, Pa, July 20.-A special
from OIL City, Pa, says: Shortly be-
fore IL o'clock last night John Nc.
Nerney, a laborer, beat his wife to
death, fatally shot his son John, and
then shot Officer James, who tried to
arrest him, in the Rroin, iDficting q
fatal wound. Officers Warden and
Henderson then came to the assistance
OF James and soon brought the des-
perate man down with a shot through
bis back. After dissrmirg him the
Ulcers entered the house where a
sickening sight met their gaze. Mrf.
McNerney was found In one corner Of
the room dead, her head and face
completely ana he'd TO Jelly, the
room despatched with blood and
brains, supposed 10 have BEEN done
with q shotgun stock. Physicians
were speedily upon the spot ard upon
examination OF Officer James and
young McNerney's wounds, pro-
nounced them fatal. The wound Of
McNernoy IL not necessarily fatal.
There was no witness 10 the sffair tx.
cept the son, who lie unable TO speak.
McNerney Ia said 10 have been intox.
icated at the time, and from all that
can be learned, was abusing his wife
when tbs son went 10 her assistance.

PIrsBURo. Pa, July 20.-Speclals
10 the Chronicle Telegraph from
Greensburgh, Pa, report conflict be.
tween the miners at work at the Nam
moth Coke Works and the strikers. A
party Of forty strikers marched to the
works this afternoon, and alter div.
Ing Of Sheriff Byres aad elk deputies,
forced the hfleen men at work to quit.
In the melee three OF the non.union
men were knocked down and severely
beaten. Sheriff Byers has called upon
the Governor Tor militia 10 protect the
men, a. he says his force n made.
quste, and destruction OF property and
perhaps loss OF life may result. Tne
strlkeru are ugly, and the impression
In westmoreland county Is that the
strike is very far from settlement, not
vithstandine the action Of yesterdays

naval officers Just how serious the
damsge is could not be learned. No
off ,ial report OF 1t has reached the
ravy yard. The officers Of the Boston
are an xit us to know tht::exsct fects re.
esrdisg the occurrence. The Boston is
a sister ship OF the Atlanta, and the
tracks for her eight inca guns are laid
In the same way. Her guns are not
yet on board. The letters ray that
the damage was done by q charge Of
ninety pounds OF powder. The tracks
will have to be much more secure to
Withstand the recoil produced by q
full charge Of l20 pounds OF powder.
During the firing live sheep was
used to ascertain Just how near men
may stand to the muxz)s Of the great
guns when they are fred without be-
ing killed by the concussion. At one
discharge, the letters say, the sheep
was blown clear over q hatchway and
killed. Officers on the Boston think
this must have been done 10 ascertain
whether an eight inch gun can be
sa'ely worked while ak inch gun
next ii Is being fred almost across the
eight inch guns track.
